A Sioux Falls area Walmart was the scene of a random act of kindness gone viral.
Katie Kanefke, mother of a 4-month-old boy, was at a Walmart in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, to buy a monthly supply of diapers. She tried to "price match" them, but the cashier told her the discount was only good for the first box.
Because she's on a strict budget, Kanefke decided to leave and find a better deal elsewhere. That's when Carol Flynn stepped in and took matters into her own hands.
A former state head of The March of Dimes, Flynn believes in "paying it forward". She saw Kanefke was in need and didn't hesitate to pull out her purse.
The only string attached: at some point, Kanefke must do the same for someone else.
Kanefke told media she walked into the parking lot afterward and cried because she was overwhelmed by the simple act of generosity.
Behind both of the ladies was Jason Yoshino, who shot video of the good deed. A cancer survivor of six years, Yoshino said: "You hear about these things, but never see them." He posted his video to Facebook and it blew up from there.
